Australia’s annual celebration of Science attracts more than 1.4 million people of all ages to over 1000 events across the nation.

This is the 16th Year that Elizabeth College has been engaged in promoting science during Science week. Our theme for this year is Keep Your Pulse on Science @ Elizabeth College.

The College received a grant from the Commonwealth of Australia as represented by the Department of Industry, Innovation and Science to facilitate the promotion and provision of activities.

Community events that inspire and educate the general public and youth of Southern Tasmania, including an official launch at Government House and ending with a celebratory luncheon at the Premier’s Office will be held. Other events to include the College Workshops, the “Keep Your Pulse on Science” Symposium and “Cooking With Pulses” for adults.

Students and staff from across the College are involved in the facilitation and presentation of the program. For more information on how to take part in the events please see the following links:

TASC provides special exam arrangements for eligible students in the categories below, where their disability significantly impacts on their ability to perform in exams, complete assignments and to access the curriculum.

A letter was sent to all Level 3 students on March 23 via their Home Group teacher, which outlines the application process. Students who feel they may be eligible can contact either Di Richards or Anna Crocker in Student Services to discuss their application. All Year 12 students who were granted special exam consideration last year will be required to re-apply if they wish to be considered again this year.
